Deadly Story provides information & resources HERE to help you build understanding and prepare to vote in the 2023 Referendum on the Voice to Parliament.

So how should I vote?

Deciding YES or NO might be difficult or confusing as many in the community are divided.

There is a YES campaign for those who believe that this will pave the way for consultancy, advocacy and change.

There is a community NO campaign. This is mob who feel that this erases the work being done for treaty, or who feel the process is not clear enough or who do not agree with constitutional recognition. Unfortunately, there are many racist groups/politicians who are also advocating NO but that doesn’t invalidate the genuine reasons community may not align with a YES vote.

Then there are those who don’t know. That might be because you don’t have enough information or feel conflicted because you see validity in both sides. It is best to continue researching, asking questions, and learning more about the process so that you can come to a decision.

Deadly Story will not tell you how you should vote. It is important that you are provided with accessible information so that you can make that decision for yourself.
